A COVENTRY pornographer who believed his clients had the right to watch the extreme “filth” he specialised in has been jailed for 18 months.

For more than a decade John Bluck, 51, of Fletchamstead Highway, Canley, ran a catalogue pornography business between his city home and a west London mailbox.

Bluck specialised in extreme titles featuring defecation, urination, vomiting, torture and rape, but his one-man business was described in court as “failing” because many of his clients had moved to the internet for more immediate gratification.

The court heard that Bluck had previously been jailed for six months in 1993 for six offences relating to similar obscene pornographic material.

He was again sentenced to 12 months in prison in 2004 for four offences of publishing obscene articles for gain.

Sentencing Bluck, Judge Michael Gledhill said: “You are an arrogant man and regard yourself as above the law. You have not learned from previous offences.”
